    If you pay for a machine to try to trick the machine, you might temporarily get ahead of the machine as long as you do it before everyone else does and the machine adjusts accordingly. THE FUTURE! agony-yehaw

      MFW maybe this means I have to go and shoot to achieve my dream of making a nerdy social media platform where I just gush about my interests…because “falling back” is now even more unrealistic thanks to my “unemployable” branding.

        It truly is fucked up that even your so-called private life has to be part of your resume now: you need to show how normal in a techbro acceptable way you are in your selfies (you take selfies, don’t you? DON’T YOU?) and have to create a “story” binding them all together or else.

          Looking back as an adult…as much as I hate to admit it since I consider myself a nerd: the jocks were right about the nerds, but for the wrong reasons.
